When I ascend to the next plane of education

[cuddlefish]

Is there anything besides

1. Guessing what teacher wants

2. Hating admin

3. People thinking it's a good thing that teacher is a fucking moron because it's college, school for BIG KIDS

4. Turning into a frothing grades monster around exam time

5. Calculating grades by one's self

6. Discovering chronic depression

7. Discovering alcohol

8. Constantly being in danger of going home due to effects from either one

9. Being upset about it

10. Starving

waiting for me at college? If so, please explain to me what that is. I would love it.

I've heard a few too many stories of people getting screwed over.

Don't forget the rape of textbook buying and sellbacks. And you'll say "thank you" to the cashier when they're done.

Seriously though, there are some good things. Like the rare good classes with good professors. They do exist. I can't think up more examples at the moment, as my brain is broken from the first round of finals and I'm bitter over the aforementioned textbook sellback. But yeah. Despite all this, I really can't think of anything else I'd rather be doing with my life right now.

You mean they're rare?

I seem to be picking all the wrong classes, but I have had some good teachers. They seem rare to me (and I'm going to one of the big state universities) probably because they're all out of my major and in classes I'd never bother to take. *scratches head* I'm not making this sound very positive, am I?
